Second pic is not stock but good enough.Thick ground wire from gearbox to left motor mount
Edit: Is the ground wire from the gearbox going to the starter!? If so..
.do not do that! Place it somewhere attached to the left motor mount.

Third pic, ringed end goes from same spot on gearbox as second pic across to left chassis rail.

Do not ground the starter from that point! that is the 12v, it's grounded through the gearbox.that's how you fry wiring

Just think that the gearbox, block and head all want to be grounded to the chassis.that's it really, more decent connections from the block, box and head to the chassis, the better.

Try to find points on the chassis that are a direct bolt in, rather than via a bracket etc.Just makes a better quality ground.

At least you didn't have a battery connected

If in doubt take the battery/frunk liner out and follow the cable back as far as you can and you will find the negative bolted to the body.
